How to Write
Your Own Vacation
Your Holiday Passports Portfolio includes Travel
Cards describing the individual vacation opportunities,
along with 30 Passport Checks, a sheet of destination
stamps, and a CD-ROM that outlines the destinations
available to you with valuable links, including
our on-line registration. To redeem any of the
travel offers, simply follow the instructions
in this booklet.
- Plan your customized vacation, referring
to the Travel Cards for options and details.
(Itinerary planning pages are included in
the back of this booklet to help you organize
your holidays.) Be sure to select two choices
for travel dates, more than seven (7) days
apart.
- For each travel offer you want to use, select
a corresponding sticker and place it on a
Passport Check. (IMPORTANT: Use one sticker
per check and one check for each destination
or travel offer. For example, if your vacation
consists of a cruise plus accommodations at
two different destinations, include three
checks and three corresponding stamps.)
- Complete the information on the Passport
Check(s), including alternate travel dates,
and mail to: Holiday Travel of America, 6405
El Camino Real, Carlsbad, CA 92009-2802, at least
forty-five (45) days before your trip.
- Once your Passport reservation request is
received, a Holiday Travel agent will contact
you to verify the information you have provided
and answer any questions.
- Holiday Travel will provide you with written
confirmation at least twenty-one (21) days
prior to departure, which you must present
in person while on your vacation. For details
on customer service, refer to page 16.

Accommodation
Privileges
There's a certain pleasure in knowing that
at the end of the day-no matter where you are
or how hard you've played-a comfortable room
awaits.
For Holiday Passport owners, that pleasure
translates into complimentary lodging for two
at a wide range of popular destinations, including
resorts in California, Nevada, Arizona, Florida,
the Caribbean, Mexico and many, many more.
Your Passport Portfolio contains a Travel Card
for each accommodation option. To see the full
range of possibilities, and to understand the
specific privileges and procedures for each,
be sure to review these cards carefully.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
- If you wish, you may combine several accommodation
certificates and use them together to create
an extended holiday for yourself. Simply request
back-to-back dates, and remember to submit
one Passport Check for each destination.
- Your accommodations are prepaid. However,
you are required to post an applicable tax
deposit of $12.50 per night. (Tax rates vary
depending upon your destination, in which
case the difference will be either billed
or credited to you.) Holiday Travel of America
highly recommends that you include your tax
deposits with your reservation request to
avoid any processing delays. If you prefer,
log onto our website at www.holidaypassports.com
to pay with your credit card. In the event
you are unable to travel, your tax deposit
will be refunded or credited.
